Considerations for the Addon

If you intend on using this addon, please note:

• The auto-detect feature will not work if you have set a ‘Popup Default Country‘ within the ‘General Settings‘ tab. Leave this setting blank to allow the country auto-detect feature to take place.
• This addon is designed to work with the new Stripe API. Ensure that you do not have the legacy API enabled within the ‘Advanced Settings‘ tab.
